Belgium, Brussels Capital Area

13 V 2010 / R Léopold Uccle FC - KFC Wambeek 3-0 / Brabant, Provincial League 1 (= BE level 5)


Note 1: as a result of the victory in the match I attended, R Léopold Uccle FC were crowned champions in their league, winning promotion to (national) division 4.

Note 2: the Stade de la Chaussée de Neerstalle was inaugurated in 1952 and became home to R Léopold Club (matricule 5), who later on changed their name on a couple of occasions, sometimes as a result of a merger. Most probably in the course of the 1950s (ca. 1955), the club moved to Stade Fallon for a first time, where it played probably until 1982, but this part of their history is rather clouded. Other sources confirm that the ground in Neerstalle was also home ground of R Uccle Sport (matricule 15), a club which merged with R Léopold FC d'Uccle in 1990 to form R Uccle-Léopold
. In 2013, the club changed its name to Léopold Uccle-Woluwe FC and moved their first team football to the Stade Fallon on the other side of Brussels for a second time. In 2020, meanwhile named R Léopold FC, the club's first team returned to Neerstalle. In 2024, the club were joined at their ground by the B team of R Union Saint-Gilloise, which had previously played at Complexe Heymbosch in Jette.
